Another weekend = Another tournament = More Medals!
30 March 2026
On Sunday, Austin competed in the Region 18 Round Robin Kata Tournament.
First, Austin competed in the 8-10 year old boys 4th-6th Kyu division. This was a really tough division with 18 kids competing across two heats before moving on to the finals. Austin's heat resulted in a tie, so he had to perform extra kata's so that the winners of the heat could be found. He won the tie breaker and moved on to the finals where he competed against 3 others. Austin did amazingly well and ultimately came 2nd, winning the silver medal!
Following this, he then competed in the Team Kata event with two of his team mates, winning gold! This was a particularly great achievement as they had only decided to enter as a team the week before and with one of the team having been on school camp, the only practice they managed to do as a team was the morning of the event!
